Sí Baby Q (translated Yes, Barbecue) is an interesting play on words. The food truck has roots in Texas barbecue yet blends in Southeast Asian, Chinese, and Mexican influences. Trevor, the food truck manager and pit master, barbeques his meat right next door to the food truck. The Flamingo food truck park is the perfect backdrop...casual, outdoors, with a laid-back persona. Also, you will find picnic tables, an open-air food court, and Texas friendly staff. In full transparency, Trevor, lured me in with his hyping his barbeque. He said it was comparable to other top barbeque joints in Austin. Really?! Now that was big talk given Austin has a plethora of great barbeque spots. He gave me a sample of the turkey and his homemade barbeque sauce. He had me at homemade barbeque sauce. I ordered the smoked turkey from Sí Baby Q, which was moist, thick and very flavorful. What a delightful find! Trevor packed my turkey along with an item I got from another food truck nicely for me to carry home. Now that's superior customer service! Great food...great service! I will definitely return...maybe tomorrow. Smile. read more

A solid barbecue food truck in North Austin, especially if you want great food without dealing with a huge line. The ribs are well seasoned and incredibly tender, and the Asian-inspired sides add a fun twist to the usual barbecue offerings. I'd recommend it for a casual, laid-back barbecue experience without all the fuss or hype. read more

Very high quality bbq for a food truck. The ribs are some of the best ribs I've ever had. The brisket is also pretty decent though a little pricey. I liked the coleslaw which has a spicy kick. Pretty quick as well, though it wasn't busy when we went. read more

This place is in a growing food truck park on McNeil. There's definitely been some turnover here, I've reviewed a couple spots that are no longer there, but I'm really hoping Si Baby-Q sticks around, it was great! Being the loose-cannon I am, I went to a barbecue trailer and ordered the smash burger, and it was excellent. The cheese was fully melted and gooey, the toppings worked well, and the patty had a subtle smokiness that reminded you this is coming from a BBQ joint. It came wrapped in foil paper, so everything steams together a bit, the bun compresses, and all the flavors meld, which to me is the right way to do a smash burger. The guy working was super friendly, greeted me right away, and even walked the food over after I'd wandered way down to some picnic tables since the park is huge now. No fries yet, but they said they're working on smoked chips, which feels very on-brand and earns extra points for sticking with the things-that-can-be-smoked theme. read more

Thank you for a delicious takeout birthday lunch! We ordered late so they were out of some things (the sign of great BBQ joint!). Here's where we tried: 1 brisket - great flavor and not overpoweringly smokey. The sauce was pretty perfect. Sweet, good kick of heat and pepperiness, and a hint of sweetness. 2. Turkey - was so tender that when I poked it with a fork to pick up a slice and fell apart! 3. Ribs were delicious and so fall off the bone. The fat was rendered just perfectly that they weren't too heavy. 4. Pork belly - everyone loved it and my mother-in-law who despises pork belly said it was delicious and loved it! That's saying something! 5. Steak tacos - unexpected addition to our order yet might have been the star of the show. They were perfect balance of delicious meat and the right toppings on a perfect tortilla. I will get these the next time I visit. This would be loved by anyone who isn't a barbecue fan but just loves good steak tacos. 6. They were out of many of the sides, but we tried the corn and the pasta and cheese.. The icing on the cake was the amazing customer service! Jonathan and the crew were wonderful and friendly. The only thing that would have made this experience better was if they had bread, jalapeños, and onions to go with the meal, but perhaps we had to request them and we didn't during pickup. We will return! P.S. Thanks for the garlic! read more

This is a food truck that popped up at the pink flamingo food truck park next to the water tank bar & restaurant. We come here a lot and wanted to try it out. This barbecue was unique in a few ways that I enjoyed. The sauce was uniquely flavored and had a good amount of seasoning. It had more depth than a regular "sweet" or "hot" bbq sauce. We also got a brisket sandwich that had great flavor, and some "fiend" elote which is their brisket, queso fresco, and cilantro on top of some boiled corn. That was really tasty and had some creamy sauce at the bottom. The item that stood out the most to me was the smash burger for one reason; it had a crunchy texture throughout the burger. Usually when I order a smash burger, it's one texture, soggy. But good! But this time, it had crunch and it was delicious. For two of us, we finished a smash burger, a 505 burger, a brisket sandwich, and a fiend elote. The items do come a little small so make sure you order a lot. read more

I ordered via ubereats and we really enjoyed everything we had. The pork belly was so good and it had just the right amount of sweetness. The pork ribs were also very good.. tender and not too salty. We also enjoyed the smoked turkey. The street corn is a must try!! Will definitely order again. read more

Absolutely loved this take on BBQ. The flavors were incredible and meat was juicy and tender. The pork ribs and the sausage were my favorite meats. For sides, the street corn awesome and better than I expected. It's not like typical street corn. The potato salad and frito pie were probably second favorite sides. I usually don't like a mustard base potato salad but loved this one. The queso noodles were good just not nearly as impressive or flavorful as everything else. The distillery the truck is at now has a gorgeous outside area to eat, drink and hang out. Lots of tables and room to eat with shade. The pit masters were so friendly and helpful. They even walked our food out to us. Will definitely be back to try some more and will be back for those ribs!! read more

The food was delicious! I took my mother in law and wife for Mother's Day and we met friends there, so we got a platter for 5 of a variety of meats and sides , the brisket was perfect, melt in ur mouth. And it was the first time I ate pork belly, it was so tasty the sausage delicious also . The pulled pork and smoked turkey were so good also. And it was the first time I had jalapeño cold slaw it is now my favorite side , I barely got any corn cause my family was tearing it up but what I did get made my mouth water , I only gave 5 stars because there is not ten , si baby Q is my favorite place for b b q, loved it read more

The brisket and spare ribs were really good, we got a quarter pound of each and it was enough for 2 people. I liked the brisket a little better than the spare ribs just because the ribs were a little too sweet. other than that they were both really tender and juicy. The smoked kimchi was a bit disappointing. I liked the roti, it was cooked well and flaky and crispy. There is free valet parking and they have a cute seating area that's outdoors. The service is really quick and they were nice. read more

Si Baby-Q - brisket, spare ribs , roti, smoked kimchi - Barbeque Near Me - Austin, Texas

Stopped by Si Baby-Q for my last day in TX. In a world where Monday joints are very few this was an awesome stop. Open 7 days a week even! I stopped by a year ago and they were parked in a different location. I like this new spot under trees. I remember loving the sausage and kimchi here last time but sadly none today. But still enjoyed the other meats. The slices of brisket I got were from the point and probably out of this week the crunchiest brisket bark. The contrast of texture from the melty fat and the tender point was wonderful. The ribs were a little more tender than I like but the sweet glaze on top was wonderful and the pork was still juicy. What I loved the most is the pork belly burnt ends. Sauced up with a sweet chili sauce. Sweet and tangy on top of the fatty pork. I could easily eat these all day. I think it was better than the last time I stopped by a year ago and I've already told my Austin coworkers they need to stop by since the office is only a short drive away. read more

AMBIANCE: - This is a food truck next to the main restaurant. They have plenty of outdoor seating. They validate parking at the garage next door. - The prices at the food truck were less expensive than the main restaurant, so a good way to try the flavors! FOOD: - We ordered the brisket sandwich and the pulled lamb shoulder. Both were very rich, tender, and filling. I liked the sandwich better because it had more texture. - We also ordered the esquires chinos. The flavor was okay, but I think it could've been better. read more

We just happened upon this food truck after we couldn't find the restaurant we were searching for. That was our good fortune. I can't begin to describe how good our food was. It's probably the best BBQ I've ever had, especially the sweet chili pork belly burnt ends--probably the most delicious food I've ever had. This isn't just hyperbole, I've had about 36 hours to think my experience over. The street corn is also indescribably delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed and service was excellent and friendly. I live about 150 miles from Austin and I'm already planning a trip back just for this food. read more

Solid BBQ spot with some standout items. The brisket was definitely the highlight--tender, smoky, and full of flavor. I also enjoyed the smash burger and the fiend elote; both were well-executed and hit the right notes. I tried the 505 burger, which had chorizo and queso--interesting combo, but the queso didn't quite work for me. Still, overall a good experience and worth checking out if you're into BBQ with some creative menu options. read more

I wish I stopped to take pictures but we were starving. This bbq was so good! We got the bigger platter that came with brisket, pork ribs, sausage link and 4 sides. pork ribs were amazing, didn't need any sauce, tasted delicious the next day too. Brisket was tender, not dry at all and super tasty. Sausage was good with a tiny kick at the end. Our sides were roti, queso noodles (2) and elote. Queso noodles were good from what I was able to taste, my mom ended up eating them all lol. Elote was ok, not my cup of tea. And the ROTI.... delicious!!! First time having it, best way I could describe to my mom (where everything round and flat is a tortilla) is tortilla masa pan fried in butter. It was crispy and soft with this amazing flavor. Service was great, did a pre-order and picked up. Easy peasy. I would totally recommend Edit to add. The sweet chili pork belly burnt ends were AH-MAH-ZING!!!! Sweet and salty bites of delicious porky goodness. Another one my mom tried to eat a lot of, we tried different places and she loved this one the most. read more

As a proud BBQ glutton I urge you to order the pork ribs. We ordered a couple of things from Zoe Tong and Si Baby-Q and everything was excellent, but the ribs are divine. They cover them in agave overnight and the sweetness is perfect for a hot summer slightly sticky bbq experience. The Indonesian peppercorn and whatever else they're using is an amazing spice pairing. Certainly the brisket is good and earns its place in Austin but my god the ribs are truly special read more
